Christmas Getaway

My husband and I took a trip to Destin for a quiet Christmas getaway with our fur babies. The property was clean and beautifully decorated. The balcony faces the beach and offers gorgeous views of the sunrise. Marge was a great host. She was kind and very responsive. The only issue we had wss that we were unable to live stream Netflix and other platforms to catch the NFL games. Otherwise, our stay was fantastic.

Paradise on the beach

This condo is absolutely stunning and views of the beautiful emerald coast is breathtaking! Very very clean, all new inside, beds are so comfortable that you really don’t want to get out of but you think gosh that cup of coffee sitting on the balcony watching the waves I need to get up! Very quiet and very secure building. The pool is huge with lots of chairs to stretch out. This will be my place from now on. Plus lots of great restaurants close by walk or drive. Host Marge is so so sweet and the few times I text her she responded back immediately. Thank you Marge!

My favorite part about this unit is the outdoor sofa. You can rest on the sofa while enjoying your morning coffee and watch the beach wake up. People walking dogs, riding bikes, or strolling. It’s idyllic.

Wonderful Host, Spectacular Condo, Great location

This listing is exactly as described, worthy of a 5 star review. The condo has everything you need, a spectacular view from the balcony, very short walk to beach access and good selection of places to eat. As mentioned in other reviews we chose to claim the bedroom on the right when entering the foyer. Book this listing if you have the opportunity, you won't be disappointed. The host is gracious and very responsive, we hope to be able to visit again soon.

Great location with wonderful view

Great location! Quick walk to beach, nice walk to restaurants, and great walking path for humans and pets. Sitting on balcony you can listen waves, watch activity on path, the beach, water, and sunrise/sunset. I sat here for hours with coffee or cocktail. And great host that was quick to reply to my text. Thanks M&M for letting me stay a few days during my Hurricane Ida evacuation! It was much needed and very much appreciated.
